30-Day Tailgate Talk Challenge

With teams forming and chatter starting we figured, what better way to get know one another than a 30-Day challenge? Even if we haven’t officially kicked off yet- we can start the Tailgate Party (and start earning points if that’s your thing) so let’s get talking!

Starting tomorrow, Thursday September 17th, answer one question a day in your Team thread on Ravelry and/or on Instagram using #DCSPigskinTailgate20.

If you share your answers to all 30 questions, enter the Points Tally Form and you’ll get 150 points for playing.

Other Rules & Specifications:

  • If you miss a day, you can make it up- just get all 30 of those posts in.
  • I’d prefer if you post your answers on Instagram and use the hashtag so we can call get to know one another better, but if you feel more comfortable only sharing with your team, that’s great too.
  • Do you need to do this? Nope.
  • Want to share just a few of these answers- have at it (but you won’t be eligible for bonus points)
  • I’ve created 3 images that contain an abbreviated description of each + a cover in case you want to share along with your photos (or instead of a photo) each day. They can be found in this Google Drive folder.
  • Questions: Come ask over here in the Questions Thread on Ravelry or by emailing me downcellarstudio at gmail dot com.
  • Reminder: At the end of the 30 days if you’ve completed all of the prompts (on Instagram and/or Ravelry) you can submit a Points Tally form for your 150 points!
  • Points must be entered in the Points Tally form by the end of the day on 10/31/20.
